Stroke color does not appear

I am trying to insert an ellipse into a document with a transparent fill and a solid stroke.   When I go to Effects-Transparency, the entire ellipse is transparent (i.e., the stroke disappears as well).  The box states that the stroke is normal 100% (no effects), but the stroke is not visible.   How can I get the stroke to appear?   I just want a simple circle.    Thanks!

Then why use transparency at all? Just set the fill to none.
Otherwise you'd need to adjust the opacity by just selecting the fill, not the entire object.

    I still can't find a solution. Changing the parameter wmode:transparent works for .swf files but .flv files do not have the option to add this parameter. If you add it in the script manually it doesn't do anything. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I cn't find any solution online.
    Thanks,

  • I still use Aperture 2.1.4.  I need to export an image file with a CMYK profile.  Whereas a generic CMYK profile is listed in ColorSync Utility, it does not appear on the list of profiles in the edit portion of the export preset dialogue.  Help?

    I still use Aperture 2.1.4.  I need to export an image file with a CMYK profile.  Whereas a generic CMYK profile is listed in ColorSync Utility, it does not appear on the list of profiles in the edit portion of the export preset dialogue.  Help?  Is there some way to add the CMYK profile to the list of choices that are available in the export preset dialogue such that I can choose it?

    Thanks for your response.  My profiles are located within color sync utility as you can see here:   
    These profiles do not respond to clicking and dragging.  Since they are all in one place, more or less, I'm reluctant to make further attempts to relocate them.  Accessing the CMYK profile is the first difficult experience I've encountered with this arrangement.  I have never needed the CMYK profile until recently, and that need has now past.  However, it remains a mystery to me as to why it does not appear with all the others on the menu of export choices in Aperture 2, or on the menu of profile assignment choices in the Preview application (where again all the other profiles are listed as choices).  I'm beginning to think my current set up will permit me to view an image that was created in CMYK space, but does not easily assign, or convert to that space.  I don't face these restrictions with all the others, so it remains a curious circumstance for me.  I anticipate upgrading my computer and software in the near future which might alleviate this issue altogether.  Again, many thanks for your attention to this matter.  The reach of this community is astounding.

  • "This file does not appear to be a Photoshop file"

    Ok, I used the first edition of Encore in the past, but I just installed the version that came with Premiere CS3. I used Photoshop 6.0 to do my menus in the past, but just installed the trial of Photoshop CS3.
    Two things:
    My old menus I created in Photoshop 6.0 won't import into the new Encore.
    The new menus (I opened my old menus with CS3 and saved them out.) won't import into Encore either. In both cases, Encore says:
    "This file does not appear to be a photoshop file."
    The files are indeed all photoshop .PSD files and the Photoshop 6.0 files are actually menu files that were in the same .ncor project I used on the old Encore and opened on the new one.
    Why won't Encore read these?
    Thanks!

    Bummer,
    I hoped that I had helped.
    Let's play 20 Questions:
    The PSD files were originally created in PS 6, and you have Opened them in PS-CS3, from which they were Saved. Correct?
    Did CS3 throw any error messages?
    You state that they were Menus in Encore. Which version, and did they function perfectly there?
    I assume that when used in a previous ver. of Encore, they did function, but now you have Opened, worked on and Saved from PS-CS3. What changes were made?
    Was the Color Mode, or Bit-Depth changed, or were Alpha Channels introduced?
    Has your OS been changed?
    Will these files still Open fine in PS-CS3?
    I'm trying to find the point that they ceased to Import, as they should and find out what might have changed with them. You might want to do a bit of a timeline on the life of these files, i.e. 1.) created in PS6. 2.) used as Menus in Encore2. 3.) Opened and changed in PS-CS3 by doing X. 4.) Saved out as PSDs and attempted to Import into Encore CS3 with above error message...
    Something has to have changed, and the task is to find out what that is/was.

  • This file does not appear to be a Photoshop file - Menu won't import

    I was searching on the forums and found that some other people have had this problem, but I didn't see any solutions.
    When I try to build my DVD from Encore, I get this error "This fiel does not appear to be a Photoshop file.
    I created my menu in Photoshop CS4, imported it as a menu.  When I preview in Encore it works fine?
    The photoshop file is 8 bit color...should it be 16?  I tried that to, but it doesn't seem to change anything?
    Any help is greatly appreciated!!!

    The 2 bit image object that shows up to the right of the buttons on the highlighted state still was a little too crisp, but
    I'm going to try a little vertical blur like you said to see what happens.
    Well, the Vertical Blur will not work there. The Sub-picture Highlights cannot have any Styles, or Filters added to them. What I do to "simulate" a "glow" is to to create a second Sub-picture Highligh, in the next Layer down (in the same Button Layer Set)t, ever so slightly larger. I then set it's Transparency in Encore to be about 50%-30% of what the "original" Sub-picture Highlight's Transparency was. You can also assign another number from the Menu Color Set (this is done in PS), and then adjust that number's value in Encore to be a shade lighter of the original Sub-picture Highlight's. You will end up with maybe a 2 and a 3, and need to pick those colors from a Custom Color Set in Encore - cannot be done in PS, at least through CS3 and I do not believe in CS4 either. That might bear checking out, with someone like Jeff Bellune, or Jbowden. See this LINK for some tips, and this one for the full ARTICLE. The link to the version posted on Adobe has been lost, with the changeover in the forum. You can post and read at Muvipix.com, without a subscription, or even the free signup. Because of the wealth of Functional Content, stock music and Menus, etc., you might want to spend a bit of time poking around there.
    Though most of the article and discussion revolve around removing part of the Sub-picture Highlight, the final steps are for adding what appears to be a Blur. Remember, you only have ON, OFF, COLOR (limited to 4, including the background) and TRANSPARENCY, for each pixel in a Sub-picture Highlight. That's why you cannot have Styles, or similar. You have to create the illusion.
    Also, I created my lower third in Photoshop and saved out a .PNG file to import into Premiere.
    When I play the DVD, there seems to be some noise in the title.  Do you think that's because of how
    I saved the video out or because I used a .PNG?
    I do not know. I have never used the PNG format. Instead, I create all of my Titles (the ones that I do outside of Titler) in PS, often using AI for shapes, that will be Rasterized in the process. I do my Titles there, and then Save_As .PSD. If I wish to animate some of the Layers, I'll Import as a Sequence, if not, I Import as Footage. I always start from the image Preset to match my Project, so frame size and PAR are right to begin with. The only reason that I can think of for using PNG is the Transparency, but PSD offers that, and so much more.
    There is much that one can do with the animation of PSD Layers in PrPro. It's not as powerful, or as full-featured, as is AE, but many are surprised at how good it is.
    Best news is that you are almost there, and that things looked good on the DVD. If you have any trouble following the steps for the simulated Glow in the second Sub-picture Highlight, just let me know. It's been a whle, since I wrote that, and might need to re-visit it myself.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

  • CC 2014 nik efex - My Nik Efex filters are not working in Photoshop CC 2014 - they appear under plug-ins and seem to work, but after running and clicking okay, no new layer appears - seems to have no effect.  The separate menu panel does not appear either

    My Nik Efex filters are not working in Photoshop CC 2014 - they appear under plug-ins and seem to work, but after running and clicking okay, no new layer appears - seems to have no effect.  The separate menu panel does not appear either.  Help with this?

    BINGO !!!!
    Thanks so much Woodsroad. I had the exact same problem with my Dell Windows 7 64 bit with AMD Radeon 6700 Video card.
    All the video tests passed with flying colors.
    The sniffer rename trick fixed the problem.
    Thank goodness for the internet!

  • I'm attempting to create a pdf from InDesign and the Illustrator image does not appear properly.

    I'm attempting to create a pdf from InDesign and the Illustrator logo does not appear properly. The logo has a light blue color background with a black to white gradiant over it with a multiply designation set at 100%.  I flattened the logo in illustrator before importing into InDesign. When the pdf is created, the blue background of the logo drops out and the only thing showing is the graduated screen of black. PLEASE HELP!!!!!!

    Thanks for your reply Peter,
    I'm on Mac OSX (10.5.8) using Acrobat 7 Professional and Acrobat 
    Reader 9 to view the pdf. I created it by exporting. Attached is a 
    screen capture of the letterhead. Since I posted, I sent a test pdf to 
    my partner's computer eventhough it didn't look right on my system and 
    she said it looked fine to her. I've restarted my computer and tried 
    again and still get the same results.

  • The address of the page I am on does not appear in the address bar?

    Since upgrading to Firefox 4, the address of the page I am on, does not appear. I often want to send the link to someone, but now I can't.

    You will all be interested to know, I had been unable to see the link of the page I was on, nor was I able to go back or forward on any webpage.............
    Both problems were solved when I disabled the "Color Tabs" Add On.
    I literally went through each add on, disabling it, and then re-starting Firefox. Again, when I disabled "Color Tabs", problem(s) solved..........
    I impressed even myself.
    Thanks for the Tip.
    I guess certain Add-Ons affect each computer differently, based on what you already have added.

  • The index link does not appear in italic. What do I do wrong?

    The primary definition of the glossary term does appear in bold, but the secondary (index link) term does not appear in italic.  I also can not format the word in another color or typeface. Any ideas on how to fix this?

    Try one of your other USB ports. Be sure to insert it with the plated fingers pointing upwards.

    If this is a new site and a newly created template, you DON'T need to 'apply' the template.
    The best way to create new child pages is to :
    FILE>New>Page from Template
    There will be a list of any templates you've created, select the correct one and press create.  Child page created :-)
    Save as newpagename.html  (not inside the Template folder though !)
    PS;  as others have pointed out, the link to the background image is incorrect it's pointing to your harddrive.  Is the file within the defined site working folder?

  • Police does not appear in the left corner iMovie11 viewer, any idea?

    Police does not appear in the left corner iMovie11 viewer, any idea?

    Hi Bengt,
    actually I just found what is the problem, if I choose the Halo effect in the Title navigator (sorry if the words are not exactly it, mine is in French so I translate) I do not have the "show the polices" in the upper left corner of the viewer, but if I choose another one like a lateral effect, it appears and I can modify the polices and colors of my title. Go figure?!
    I spent maybe 2 hours trying to understand that, well I think it is a glitch, but maybe just on the French version, I don't know.

    You add everything to the Panel p but you never add that panel to the applet. What you probably want is to add everything to the applet. An applet is a special kind of panel so you can just change "p" to "this" everywhere in init and remove the declaration of p at the top.

  • Background does not appear when set.

    Hi,
    My backgrounds do not appear when I set them.
    Product name: HP 1000 1408AU
    I have a photo on my desktop which i would like to be et as my background image and when i right click and select 'set as background image' it does not appear, the background just stays at blank. However when i tap the windows symbol on the keyboard (which takes us to the tiles) the desktop tile has my background image i selected. But when i click the desktop tile it does not come up. 
    This issue has been happening for at least 3 months.
    Also when i go into the control panel, and then under the 'Appearance and Personalization' label, there is the 'Change destop background'. When i click this and select my image, and then click save changes it does not appear.
    Also under the same 'Appearance and Personalization' label, when i click the 'change the theme' button, it says the image i selected is set to my desktop background, but it isnt. The background on my desktop is still blank. (blank black).
    Could someone please help me with this issue?
    Thanks.
    P.s when explaining how to fix it please give simple straight forward instructions e.g click this then that then this......
    Thanks again.
    below is what my background looks like (even when an image is set)
    This question was solved.

  • One NIK filter does not appear as plug-ins

    Dear All,
    I'm working with the NIK Color Efex Pro plug-ins that include a whole series of plug-ins, but one does not appear in Photoshop.  That is the Analog Pro 2 package.  I can get it to work, but I must open it separately because it won't appear in the list of filters that are listed under "Nik Collection."  I've dragged the Analog Pro 2 application into the Adobe Plug-Ins file along with the other NIK filters, but it doesn't appear to have the same .plugin or .config file name as the other files.  Anything I can do to get this plug-in to appear?  Another one that doesn't seem to appear in Photoshop is called "Selection Tool." 
    Thanks  Small Town Gal

    Yes, done all that but there is no adobe flash player listed in the add ons >plug ins site. However in the program listings on the start section adobe flash player is displayed.
    I have tried down loading it again and although I have done this from downloads and it displays as done it does not reappear in plug ins.
    The plug ins I have got listed in Tools>Add_ons>Plugins are
    Microsoft RDM 9.0.0.3250
    Microsoft RDM 9.0.0.3250
    Mozilla Default Plug in 1.0.015
    Shockwave flash 10.01.2.76
